Celebrate summer !

Let's all celebrate summer!!!
To put you all in a cheerful mood for the coming week here's a fun project :
A super simple and colourful summer wreath.
First, get yourself some green glossy leaves, be it magnolia or laurel leaves.

Then, paint the leaves all kind of different and cheerful bright colours and let them dry.
I used small tester pots which cost practically nothing, and which I had still left over from Easter egg decorating .

Then take a wreath
.I re- used an old Christmas wreath and took the Christmas decorations ( red berries ) off.

You sound so bubbly; like the happy colours you show us here! Great idea for those magnolia leaves. Those I always spray paint golden for Christmas time but this idea is genial; as usual coming from you.

Dear BeaI just love your sense of colour and creative spirit. And I love the images you've posted earlier - yummy!! You'd love it here in Greece with all the fantastic strong colour splurges you get here - I love it so much, makes me HAPPY!xoJoan
